Is it a PERFECT model? No. Is is amazing for the money? I think so. The details are quite good.
The doors open, as do the front and rear deck lids. Even the headlights pop up.
The interior is surprisingly detailed. Heck, it even includes the trunk pan!
Inconsistencies abound as this appears to have been modeled after a slightly modified 1972 car with added hood vents, a chin spoiler and the centre roof antenna. Dual sucker fans have been added to improve cooling!
Not sure why it has BOTH the early in-bay fuel filler neck AND the side-opeing fuel door for the later cars, but since my 2881 has both too, I think that's rather cool.
The engine appears to have aluminum heads and after-market valve covers. Zoom-zoom.
Overall I have to say I'm pretty impressed. I hear that Kyosho changed factories because production wasn't meeting it's expectations. That resulted in a several-month delay in deliveries but I for one am VERY happy in the end, and I definitely recommend this model.
